“It seems that I can’t do anything to prevent immigration agents from arresting me whenever they want,” Wangas said in a statement issued by his lawyers. “I just want to work calmly. The Constitution protects my ability.”
A man in Alabama has filed a federal lawsuit against the Trump administration’s immigration policies, claiming that he has been detained twice, despite being a US citizen.
According to BenefactorThe proposed class action case was filed earlier this week by a solid worker, lead plaintiff Liu Garcia Venegas. The legislature demands that Vinigas lawyers call “unconstitutional and illegal immigration tactics”. They are being represented by lawyers at the Public interest law firm for Justice.
The US Department of Homeland Security has responded to the case then. In a bombing statement by the Trump administration, an agency spokesman said the claim was slightly higher than “racebling opportunism”.
“DHS law enforcement is used for arrests for arrests,” Assistant Homeland Security Secretary, MacLeflin, said in a statement. “Someone targets immigration if they are illegally in the United States – not their skin color, race or race.”
“Snow does not arrest or deport US citizens.” Any American citizen arrested is due to obstruction or attacks in law enforcement. “
McLaflin did not try to make any explanation that a US citizen, Venigas, has been detained twice for alleged immigration violations, which he could not commit.
Since the beginning of President Donald Trump’s second term, the implementation of US immigration and customs has rapidly relied on armed, often warrant lace raids, resulting in the arrest and temporarily detained of citizens and legal residents.
The Department of Homeland Security is accused of legalization, “on the basis of general assumptions allows armed raids that some groups of people in the (construction) industry, including Latin, are illegal immigrants.”
The litigation alleges, “Once the immigration officers arrive on a site, they already capture everyone about whom they think they look non -documentary.”
For example, Venigas was detained in a May raid. Footage caught by one of his fellow workers shows that he is hit by a boat on the ground by immigration agents. Throughout the confrontation, Wingas repeatedly insisted that he was a US citizen. After a month, Wingas was detained on another construction site.
“It seems that I can’t do anything to prevent immigration agents from arresting me whenever they want,” Wangas said in a statement issued by his lawyers. “I just want to work calmly. The Constitution protects my ability.”
Embroidery Reportedly, during both arrests, Vingas showed US immigration and customs enforcement agents its original ID issued by its album, which is a document that is issued only to citizens and legal residents. His identity card was dropped near as “fake”.
“Immigration officers are not above the law,” said Jabba Sattswashiili, the Institute for Justice Attorney. “Liu is a hard -working American citizen who stands for the right to do everyone’s work without merely visible or for what they do.”
